Teacher Name: Diane Rasmussen

Grade Level: K

Subject: Math

Topic: Money

Lesson Summary: Students will sort coins, count the number and/or value of the groups of coins, and compare inequalities using equal/non-equal symbols and greater than/less than symbols.

Goals (Learning Objectives): *How will learning objectives be communicated to students? Learning objectives will be embedded in the oral directions. *How will students be allowed to personalize learning objectives? Students will personalize learning objectives by forming their own coin amounts and comparisons during assessment. Required prior knowledge: Objectives: Students will:
 * 1) Ability to correctly count and write numbers
 * 2) Ability to correctly apply and make inequality symbols <,>, and =.
 * 1) count and write the quantity or value of the coins.
 * 2) state equivalency and draw correct inequality symbol between coin quantities.
 * 3) state equivalency and draw correct inequality symbol between coin values.

NETS: 4 and 5

Setting Objectives Providing Feedback Reinforcing Effort Providing Recognition

Using the infinite cloner, the teacher will drag various amounts of coins into each box. Students will count and write the number in the rectangular box under the amount of coins. In the square between the rectangles, the students will make the appropriate symbol to show inequalities. Students will lead as teachers.

Cues, Questions, & Advance Organizers Summarizing Note taking Nonlinguistic Representation Cooperative Learning

Review with students the value of each coin and how to count/skip count to find the total value of a number of the same coins. The teacher may now use the same pages to drag various amounts of coins for the students to count the total value. Have the students write these values under each coin box. The inequivalency symbol can be written between the money amounts.

Homework & Practice Identifying Similarities & Differences (Compare/contrast, classify, create, metaphors or analogies) Generating & Testing Hypotheses (problem-solving, invention experimental inquiry, historical investigation, decision-making, systems analysis)

Students will identify and compare the differences between coins as needed for review.
